The Rangemaster Elise ELS110DFFSB is a 110cm dual fuel range cooker that combines professional-style performance with classic, French-inspired styling in a smart Stone Blue finish. With six gas burners, two full-size electric ovens, a dedicated grill and a storage drawer, it is clearly aimed at busy family kitchens and keen entertainers.
Rangemaster is a premium name in range cookers, and this model is very much at the top end of the market in both price and specification. You are paying for capacity, flexibility and build quality rather than bare-bones cooking.
A user rating of 4.9 out of 5 from well over 600 reviews suggests owners are genuinely delighted with how it performs day to day, which backs up the strong spec sheet on paper.
This Elise is ideal for larger households and anyone who regularly cooks for a crowd. With two 79-litre ovens and a separate 25-litre grill, there is ample room to handle Sunday roasts, batch cooking and dinner parties without juggling trays.
It suits buyers looking for a premium, long-term centrepiece for a spacious kitchen rather than a compact, budget-friendly cooker. The 110cm width and substantial depth mean it needs a decent run of units and proper planning for installation.
The dual fuel setup – gas burners on top with electric ovens below – is particularly appealing if you like the instant control of gas for pans but prefer the even, reliable heat of electric ovens for baking and roasting. It will suit confident home cooks and enthusiastic bakers who want versatility, from delicate pastries to high-heat searing on the wok burner.
If you are in a smaller flat, on a tighter budget or unlikely ever to use more than one oven at once, this is almost certainly more cooker than you need. But for busy family homes and open-plan kitchens where the cooker is a focal point, it makes a lot of sense.
The sheer cooking space is the standout strength. Two large 79-litre electric ovens give you the freedom to roast, bake and reheat at different temperatures simultaneously, while the separate 25-litre grill cavity keeps cheese on toast or crisped veg independent of oven use.
Six gas burners, including powerful 4kW zones and a dedicated wok burner, offer plenty of room for multiple pans. The cast iron pan supports add stability and the one-hand electronic ignition makes it quick to get going.
The multifunction main oven, with fan assistance, conventional heat and defrost options, gives you flexibility for different recipes. Catalytic stay-clean liners on the main cavity sides help absorb grease during cooking, cutting down on heavy scrubbing.
Practical touches like the Handyrack clip-on roasting tray, telescopic shelf runners and a proper storage drawer for trays make a real difference to everyday use and safety, especially when lifting heavy roasts.
Build quality is reassuring, with a traditional Rangemaster feel, flame failure safety devices on the hob and a two-year manufacturer warranty for peace of mind. The strong owner rating suggests reliability and satisfaction are in line with the premium positioning.
The most obvious drawback is price: this Elise sits firmly at the premium end of the dual fuel range cooker market, so it will not suit tighter budgets.
Despite the cost, there is no glass viewing window on the doors, which means you have to open them to check on food, losing heat each time. There is also no digital display or sophisticated programming – you get an electronic timer, but not the full programmable convenience you might expect at this level.
Only the main oven gets catalytic liners, while the second oven and grill use enamel interiors. They are not difficult to wipe clean, but they will not mask splatters as well as fully lined cavities, so you will still need to put some effort into cleaning.
Finally, it requires both a Gas Safe engineer and a qualified electrician for installation, and it needs hard wiring with no plug supplied. That is standard for many range cookers, but it does add to the overall cost and planning.
Living with the Elise 110 quickly underlines how much easier a generously sized cooker can make family meals. The wide hob gives you space to spread out pots without handles clashing, and the mix of burner sizes – from a gentle 1kW simmer zone to powerful 4kW burners – means you can move pans between fast boil and low-and-slow without fiddling.
The rotary controls are straightforward and mounted on the front, so you do not need to reach over hot pans. One-hand ignition feels natural and reduces the usual click-and-match faff. Cast iron pan supports give a sturdy surface that feels secure under heavy cookware.
Inside, the side-opening doors on the main ovens make it easier to reach in, particularly in a larger kitchen where the cooker might be set slightly deeper into cabinetry. Adjustable shelves and seven shelf positions offer good flexibility for tall dishes or multiple trays.
The Handyrack is a highlight in day-to-day use: it brings the roasting tray out with the door, so basting and checking a joint is much safer and less awkward. Telescopic runners on shelves also help prevent dishes tipping when you slide them out.
Cleaning is relatively manageable for a cooker of this size. Catalytic liners in the main cavity soak up much of the grease at higher temperatures, while easy-clean enamel elsewhere means a wipe-down rather than a deep scrub if you stay on top of spills.
Performance is a strong point. The main multifunction oven combines fan-assisted heat with top and bottom elements, so you can choose between fast, even cooking for trays of food or more traditional, gentle heat for baking and roasting. The 79-litre capacity in each of the two large ovens is among the most generous you will find in a domestic cooker, giving you flexibility for large turkeys, big casseroles and multiple shelves of baking.
Energy ratings of A for both main and second cavities are respectable for such big ovens, helping to keep running costs in check if you are using them regularly. The included defrost function in the main oven is handy for safely thawing meat or larger dishes when you are short on time.
On the hob, the six gas burners span everything from a small 1kW zone for simmering sauces to powerful 4kW burners that are ideal for woks and fast boiling. Cast iron supports and flame failure devices – which cut the gas if the flame goes out – underline the cooker’s serious but safety-conscious design.
The third cavity is a full-width electric grill with variable control, separate from the ovens. Combined with the Handyrack and telescopic runners, it makes high-heat finishing and everyday grilling convenient, even if the grill cavity itself is a more modest 25 litres.
Beyond raw performance, you also get thoughtful usability features: an electronic programmable timer, interior lights in both large ovens to monitor cooking, and a bottom storage drawer to keep trays and tins neatly tucked away. While there is no glossy touchscreen or Wi-Fi, the feature set is robust, practical and clearly focused on real cooking rather than gimmicks.
With an asking price well into premium territory, the Elise ELS110DFFSB is an investment piece rather than an impulse buy. You can certainly find dual fuel cookers for much less, but they will not match the combination of capacity, build, burner count and overall refinement you get here.
The dual 79-litre ovens, six-burner gas hob with wok burner, separate grill, catalytic liners and thoughtful touches like the Handyrack and telescopic runners all contribute to a package that justifies a higher price for households that will actually use the capacity.
The very strong owner feedback – a 4.9 out of 5 rating from hundreds of reviews – suggests that buyers generally feel they have had good value, despite the initial outlay. If you are going to use the extra space and flexibility week in, week out, the Elise represents solid value as a long-term kitchen workhorse.
If your cooking is mostly simple midweek meals for one or two people and you rarely entertain, the additional cost over a simpler 60cm cooker may be hard to justify. In that scenario, you are paying for capacity and features that will go underused.
The Rangemaster Elise ELS110DFFSB is a seriously capable dual fuel range cooker that delivers on its promise of space, flexibility and premium build. With two huge ovens, a powerful six-burner gas hob and a separate grill, it makes light work of big family meals and entertaining, while handy extras like catalytic liners, the Handyrack and telescopic runners make everyday cooking safer and more convenient.
Its high price, lack of viewing windows and relatively simple timer interface show that this is a cooker designed around traditional, hands-on cooking rather than flashy tech. Installation costs will also add to the overall spend.
If you have the space, the budget and the enthusiasm to make use of its considerable capacity, the Elise 110 in Stone Blue is an excellent choice and a genuine centrepiece for a busy kitchen. Those with modest cooking needs or small kitchens will be better served by something smaller and cheaper, but for serious home cooks, it is a standout option.
